Hohenstein and Mark [4] reviewed the early development of emulsion and suspension polymerization. Talalay and Magat [5] described work in the former USSR in detail. Dunbrook [6] described how the production of synthetic rubber was organized in the USA during the Second World War. Already in 1933 General nre Rubber had tested Buna S for tyre production, but found it inferior to natural rubber. Nevertheless German production increased from 300 tons per year in 1935 to 5000 tons per year in 1937 in pursuance of the aim of making the country independent of imported raw materials. The oil resistant butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer Buna N created more interest in the USA and a pilot plant was in operation by the end of 1939. The US government established the Office of the Rubber Reserve in May 1940 primarily to create a stockpile of natural rubber, but the constmction of four plants with a total capacity of 40000 tons per year was authorized. As a consequence of the Japanese occupation of Malaya in 1942 which cut off supplies of natural rubber, the...
